| 520 | |a The current practice of the cult of María Lionza is one of the most important and yet unexplored religious practices in Venezuela. Based on long-term fieldwork, this book explores the role of images and visual culture within the cult.

In short, this book is a fascinating study that sheds light on the role of visual creativity in contemporary religious manifestations | ||
